Merry Christmas Eve

With the anniversary of Episode 1 (and the beginning of the prequel phenomenon) now just 5 months away, we can't help but let our minds wander to the early years of The Chosen One and wonder what could have been. That and we have been binging on Scrooged, Mikey's Christmas Carol, The Grinch and It's a Wonder Life this holiday day season.
